Emilio Paredes
Never Knew
[Verse 1: Emilio Paredes]
I haven't written in weeks, I'm trying to piece the puzzle properly to get to the peak. What do I need? I've asked about a million times and everybody got answers but I'm still looking for mine. Is it you? I swear you speak truth, can you help me when I'm breaking like some shit up on the news. Inhale, exhale, take hits, till your lungs... Fuck this, fuck them. Cause we still so young, let's talk, let's learn. I ain't focused on nothing but the words from your lips when you speak you feel loving, you looked into my soul and you asked me why I'm running, I said they don't really get me, you said that should mean nothing. Isn't that something, I hear what you saying, it ain't like those bitches, those games that they playing, you free from the rest so a price I ain't paying for ones that feels right when I mention her name

Isn't that something, I hear what you saying, it ain't like those bitches, those games that they playing, you free from the rest so a price I ain't paying for ones that feels right when I mention her name (X2)

[Hook: Vicktor Taiwò X2]
And I bet you never knew, never knew, love could be this bright. Ain't it something, smile or something. I bet you never knew, never knew, never knew, the air could taste this sweet. I bet you never knew

[Verse 2: Emilio Paredes]
The dark raises my eyes, as I lay wide awake till the sun can rise and that's no surprise I can't sleep when I think and if sleep is relief then opportunity shrinks with every motherfuckin minute I see passing me, I tell you this, you just smile and keep asking me, baby when's the last time you stepped back and breathed, I don't know, I'm just trying to see what's left of me. What I perceived to be me is great actually, what they see is my whole life a casualty, cause to them something else what I'm bound to be, they bonded me, I'm pulling trying to break me free, but you told me slow down, work patiently, to be realizing that I'm scared of where it's taking me, but what do I do if I see it's too late for me, you said if time runs out you'll still wait for me

Isn't that something, I hear what you saying, it ain't like those bitches, those games that they playing, you free from the rest so a price I ain't paying for ones that feels right when I mention her name (X2)

[Hook: Vicktor Taiwò X2]
And I bet you never knew, never knew, love could be this bright. Ain't it something, smile or something. I bet you never knew, never knew, never knew, the air could taste this sweet. I bet you never knew

[Verse 3: Emilio Paredes]
Something else you ain't human, let me show you everything I been doin, tell me bout every dude you been choosin, tell me how all of them have been losin, here's to it all they don't do nothin for you, I'm high when I'm with you, with you its euphoric, let's reach into memories find where you store em, I'm open you're open right now let's explore it, through all the pieces of you they did not try to see, I got interest in you invest some in me, what we destined to be, I don't know but let's find out, I been lost for a minute but I'm fine now, the world big but it feels like it's mine now, you're still here I don't need other signs now, fuck a clock we both know that it's time now, I see it clear I got you in my sights now
